“…Although studies have shown positive results, [8][9][10][11] the usability of emerging disease and case management technologies is rarely addressed and reported. 12 Some estimate the failure rate of software development projects is as high as 60% due to human-computer interaction issues of poor functionality and usability, and hence low uptake.…”

Abbreviations: (CADA) Chinese Aged Diabetic Assistant, (CHI) consumer health informatics, (CHIT) consumer health informatics technology, (HCI) human-computer interaction, (UCD) user-centered design Keywords: consumer health informatics, diabetes, literature review, software development, user-centered design AbstractUser-centered design (UCD) is well recognized as an effective human factor engineering strategy for designing ease of use in the total customer experience with products and information technology that has been applied specifically to health care information technology systems. We conducted a literature review to analyze the current research regarding the use of UCD methods and principles to support the development or evaluation of diabetes-related consumer health informatics technology (CHIT) initiatives. Findings indicate that (1) UCD activities have been applied across the technology development life cycle stages, (2) there are benefits to incorporating UCD to better inform CHIT development in this area, and (3) the degree of adoption of the UCD process is quite uneven across diabetes CHIT studies. In addition, few to no studies report on methods used across all phases of the life cycle with process detail. To address that void, the Appendix provides an illustrative case study example of UCD techniques across development stages.

“…In view of the gaps between the guidelines and real life practice [45][46][47][48] and in order to improve diabetes control in India, a balanced approach to improve awareness about diabetes and its control both among patients and the medical fraternity is the urgent need of the hour. For the Indian subcontinent also, the best fit applicability of product and service design for patient centred diabetes care might be assessed 49 and awareness levels among the diabetic patients might be extended to involve them in their treatment plans. 50 …”

The problem of mass diabetes is steadily increasing everyday. This editorial introduces key issues that need to be addressed to support the effective control of diabetes in India as well as globally. Issues like awareness generation for risk reduction, frequency of monitoring for selected parameters, standards for monitoring chronic complications in patients with diabetes, and current recommended targets of various parameters, amongst others, are presented along with extensions to the vaccinations recommended for diabetic patients.
